In Quentin Tarantino's cult classic film Kill Bill, The Bride's (Uma Thurman) name is a mystery within the thrilling narrative, but the answer is revealed way earlier than most viewers realize. The Bride's name is consistently bleeped out, only to officially be revealed in Kill Bill: Volume 2. Tarantino created an heir of mystery around his protagonist by averting her name, while he skillfully placed subtle details throughout his first film that answer the question before the anticipated revelation in Volume 2.

Kill Bill is a film centered around identity, as the protagonist is called different names, each signifying a different part of her character's journey. The Black Mamba represented her past with the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, and when she is betrayed by Bill (David Carradine) she is reborn as The Bride. It is not until Kill Bill: Volume 2 that Tarantino stops having The Bride's name censored out...
